North Carolina Woman Dies at Haiti Vodou Retreat

Dana Jackson, a 51-year-old woman from North Carolina, died unexpectedly while attending a Vodou spiritual retreat in Haiti, where she aimed to become a Manbo priestess. She traveled to Haiti on July 1 and was supposed to return on July 26, but her last communication was on July 12, raising concerns for her family. Her son, Timothy Jackson, expressed skepticism about her trip due to Haiti's unstable political climate and has since received conflicting accounts regarding the circumstances of her death, including claims of a stroke and an asthma attack. He noted that his mother's body was moved multiple times on the island, contributing to his suspicion about the situation. Timothy is now seeking answers and clarity about the events that led to his mother's death, which he describes as mysterious. The family is grappling with the sudden loss and the need for further investigation into the circumstances surrounding her passing.
